Derailleur hangers, pulley wheels and parts

Derailleur hangers, pulley wheels and bike parts to keep your bike functioning

Sometimes, it’s the little things that matter most, and your bike is no exception. You want to keep your bike at peak performance for as long as possible, and having a few spare parts on hand can make a big difference.

A derailleur hanger is an easy part to replace if you break the one you have. Don’t freak out if this happens – that just means it’s doing its job and protecting more expensive parts. Make sure you know what kind of bike you have when you go looking for a replacement. Derailleur hangers are specific to brands and models, and you want to make sure the new one fits. If you need some guidance, visit or call up your local MEC to chat with one of our knowledgeable staffers.
